My new suit


Front view.

First off, here are the patterns I used:
and


Suit back. I added the half-belt to the design, as it was entirely too shapeless before. I think the belt makes it a lot cuter.


Jacket only


Collar back and front. Note how stripes are aligned on collar back. I was very pleased with this.


Front, side, and back views of the underdress that goes with the jacket. The pattern was modified to make the skirt a-line rather than pencil, because I cannot walk in pencil skirts, since I walk like a belligerent sailor.


Detail photos of the collar and back waistline. The zipper is a scavenge out of one of the first dresses I ever made, which was very ugly and never looked any good. First projects are very rarely very successful, Iit seems.
